Texas is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the criminal who shot Memphis Police Chief Rex Plant.
The Texas Department of Public Safety sent a “Blue Alert” to smartphones statewide shortly after 5 a.m. Friday for 33-year-old Seth Altman in the shooting of Memphis Police Department Chief Rex Plant.
Local media reports the chief was shot late Thursday when he and another officer tried to arrest Altman on a burglary charge.
ABC’s affiliate station KVII-TV reports that the Plant was listed in stable condition at a hospital in Lubbock.
In 2008, then-Gov. Rick Perry’s executive order created a “Blue Alert,” similar to Amber Alerts for missing children.
Cecilia & I pray for Chief Plant’s swift recovery.
We will bring this criminal to justice.
Call the Texas Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-252-8477.
